These are the cables we use in both of our set ups, from Purist, good stuff.
We finished fine tuning it right on time. Here are a few quick shots of the room.
The main setup with Django XL, M•Amp Mono Power block and Nagra electronics on M•Furniture Audio Bench.
The premiere of the new Miles 5 that we will tell you more about soon.

We’ll be back soon with more news.
The room is really getting there and it already sounds good. There’s always a slight worry before that one of the ‘links in the chain’ will not work or so, so now we can relax. At least until it opens tomorrow.
This is a bit like that huge storage space at the end of ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’:)
‘Haute Fidélité‘, the prestigious HIFI magazine wrote:
The latest chord on the Marten guitar is called Django. It’s a beautiful instrument of music reproduction and it’s particularly well-equipped at the technical level. The quality of finish has the same prestige as the other achievements of the manufacturer. All this for a price as unexpected as reasonable for a Marten loudspeaker. A great success.
We used Google Translate so it might not be the most accurate wording but you get the gist:)
Thank you very much to Monsieur Dominique Mafrand.
We just received this amazing review of our new Django loudspeaker in well renowned Norwegian Fidelity #56
“The speaker feels homogeneous from top to bottom, while the speed and the exemplary micro-dynamics provides an excellent crispness and detail to support themselves on a mountain of solid fundaments. Piano sounds amazingly natural and detailed.”
Very roughly translated, but you can imagine that we’re very happy about this:) Big thank you to Knut Vadseth och Trond Torgnesskar.
We’re upstairs in Sheraton Stockholm this weekend at the very cool HiFi show Stockholm High End. Read More
The weather is always lovely under the painted ceiling at the Venetian:)
Here’s some more stuff from our floor.
Bright red electronics from Oracle Audio.
We keep playing the track ‘Geronimo’s Free’ by Ted Sirota’s Rebel Souls. It sounds awesome on our system.
Back at the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas for CES 2012. Marten have been exhibiting for more than a decade at CES and every year is more fun than the previous. We have now opened the doors to the Marten room and the show is already busy.
Here we are again in glimmering Las Vegas preparing for CES 2012. We have a feeling this years show will be cooler than ever with all the attention the Djangos already have had.
Also, we really hope you all had nice holidays and, Happy New Year:)
See you soon.
